MONDAY

Mondays are a slow day. I plan it like that. I try to avoid any appointments or meetings if possible, because usually Monday just takes care of itself.

After a weekend, which is usually more busy than relaxing, I wake up feeling fairly positive, like this morning.

I went to pick up the garbage can from the end of the driveway and as I walked, the sun was out, it was quiet (I like in the country) and it felt really good to be alive.

In moments like that, I thank God for the good start to the day. And from there, there is a list of things I'm grateful for, and I go for it. People, situations, health, finances, etc.

As I leave home for work, I drive past a park on the waterfront and the sun comes up over the water. It's often a magnificent sight; to drive and breath it in - the air, the beauty, the blessing and the start of a new week. I continue my drive to LIFE 100.3, with the radio on, (of course), letting the lyrics of the Christian songs fill me; songs that encourage me and remind me of my faith. Very cool!

It reminds me of this Geoff Moore song - "Good To Be Alive".
